    I'm on episode three, you can clearly tell when buddy wants to go off and remembers the cameras are there.

    Also, I.Wright doesn't get it and that's unfortunate. But the kid is doing long term damage to himself.

    Pretty pleased the red raider is the one guy who can actually read. Also probably explains why we're so shitty at football.

    Shit I think she looks better. In a lot of The earlier episodes last year. You could tell that she was one of the southern females who used a bit too much makeup.

    I was pretty shocked by how good a kid hes coming off as so far (I just started watching). Its so easy for someone to stand out on our awful defense and after the incident i would not have thought he was that kind of kid. Super polite, works hard in the classroom. I am curious now about the circumstances of that robbery. Maybe just young kids being dumb

    It reminds me of watching Texas Tech. Even years where we have had a chance to have a half way decent (for the big 12) defense, they are gassed by halftime because our offense has run 75 pass plays before the game ends. Plus it puts you in a situation where if your offense comes out cold some random game, you get fucking murdered

    His daughters legit piss me off. You have six episodes of your day cussing up a storm and throwing players under the bus. But they roll with the line of "he's the coach and sometimes you have to be like that. He's not like that at home"

    News flash sweetheart. People think your father is a twat and you aren't helping the situation by defending him.

    And he was punishing him like a child for thinking there were 12 men on the field. That happens at least once a season in my experience. It's not good, but it's better than getting a penalty if you really do have 12 men on the field.

    Kicking him upstairs doesn't even make sense. You demote him from playcaller because he miscounted guys? That's just petty shit.

    And the ex wife comment should have gotten him knocked the fuck out

    It's fine as long as the coach isn't actually putting him back in the game.

    And I took Buddy's comment as more of exasperation and frustration than anything else.

    my friends that played jc football in northern california said that Buddy is everywhere. it was probably worse 10 years ago but one of them was basically benched for half a season because he said he wasn't ready to play a week after being knocked out cold during a punt return.

    I am 5 episodes in and I can't help but wonder when all these guys talk about offers... The only reason they go there is to have enough time pass for people to forget what they did wrong and offer them a spot. Yes, it was 2 years ago but Deandre Johnson still cold cocked a girl at a bar. He deserves a "second" chance to make something of his life but maybe not the right to play big time football again. (Not trying to turn this thread into that). Scooba doesn't rid the stigma, just passes time.

    Very few "change" like it appears the former Texas Tech LB did..

    Edit: I should differentiate..guys that struggle academically (looking at you Mr. Louisville) are totally different than those that committed crimes.

    When i was in school i worked for the athletic department. The resources, time, and energy that go into getting some of these guys to the absolute bare minimum is really staggering. Some of them are super thankful for all the support and take full advantage of it (Jakeem Grant who is on the Dolphins now was an absolute model kid while I was assigned to him. 15 minutes early for every class, never missed an assignment, etc) but some of the other guys literally couldnt make it to a class at noon even if thats all they had the whole day. Even with their eligibility and career on the line.
